Pickled or Soused Herrings Recipe | |
Appetizer | |
|
Ingredients:
2 herrings per person2 bay leaves 1large sliced onion for 8 fish 1 teaspoon pickling spices vinegar and water to cover salt and pepper
Directions:
Clean the fish and remove the heads and tails. It is not necessary to fillet them. Lay them in an oven-proof dish, after rubbing a little salt into the skins. Add the bay leaves, pickling spice, thinly sliced onion and pepper and barely cover the fish with a mixture of half vinegar and half water. Cover with a piece of foil or a lid and bake in a moderate oven for 30-40 minutes. Leave to get cold in the liquid. They are served cold, with a little of the tangy liquid poured over.I am not sure this is supposed to be an appetiser, butit sounds like it might work. Maybe, served with some simple crackers.
